Boarding

Sierra Woods Farm horses are stabled in a single barn with padded box stalls that average 12'x12'. We have oversize stabling to accommodate larger warmblood breeds.
 
Our stabling facility is fully staffed and includes two tack rooms, an observation room, restroom, laundry room, storage and trailer parking.
 
Our facility includes two outdoor arenas and one indoor arena, where the observation room allows family and friends to watch. 
 
Our facility is heated for wintertime comfort.
 
Our staff provides outstanding regular and full care service including daily turnout with boots and blankets as necessary (weather permitting), daily stall cleaning, weekly bucket scrubbing, twice per day feeding (lunch is available as needed) supplements and blanketing.
 
We believe turnout is essential to having a healthy, happy horse. We turn our horses out whenever weather permits it. With a multitude of differentially sized fields, we work intentionally to carefully select the group of horses in each field and can provide a more private turnout if needed.
 
We also provide efficient saddling and cool out care for our full service horses.
 
We have a great team of professionals ready to assist you with any kind of needs from veterinary and farrier services to chiropractic, trailering and specialty grooming services such as body clipping and show prep.
 
We have a full service veterinary clinic 20 minutes from our farm and the Purdue University Animal Hospital one hour away.
